Review. Everyday Bicycling: How to Ride a Bike for Transportation, by Elly Blue

In June 1992, with my bicycle I boarded a jet to Germany, leaving my home, Portland, OR behind. In Portland, my bike was both transportation and recreation. It continued that way for a couple of years in Germany until pressures from work and home required me to get a car. Bicycling became an on and off recreation and fitness valve for me until this year when I left Germany and moved to the Netherlands.
